Marshall: I'm in San Diego now visiting my brother. We shot some pool today and I had forgotten how beautiful the buckeye burl cue you made for him was. You know, the one with the cobra head above the wrap area and the snakeskin tail. We had about ten people come over and look at it and ask who made it. The cue you made me with the snake head in the butt is one of the two most beautiful cues you've made me. Anyone who has seen it is amazed at the uniqueness of the cue and the outstanding workmanship. I'm glad you found a good use for those cobra heads and skins I sent to you. Anyway, the cue still hits great, as well as the other one you made for him, and I've been shooting with the same cue you made me for a couple of years now. All of the cues you made me hit great but I'm saving them because one day they're going to be worth a ton of money. Of course I don't think I'll ever sell any of your cues. I haven't counted lately but I think I have ten or twelve of the cues you made me, along with the several cases you made me.
What amazes me about you is that almost any wild idea someone comes up with you're about to intergrate into a pool cue. I think it's a combination of your woodworking skills and your comic book imagination and background. In a comic book ANYTHING is possible, and I think that's your attitude about making a challenging pool cue.
Anyway, it's good to be back in touch with you. You should get the gallon of clearcoat that I owed you soon.
When my brother gets up I think we'll post a picture or two of the buckeye burl cue on this forum. When I get home from vacation I think I'll post a picture of the burlwood knife you made my wife with her initials on one side in turquoise, and her police badge number on the other side in turquoise. She was going to take it to work but we both like it so much we still have it displayed at home. My wife loves the knife. Hope you're feeling OK. Your good friend, Jack.

QP, while apparently not an accurate statement, I take the suspicion about outsourcing the scrim as a compliment. I assume that he was saying your work is so much better than what the average guy could do, you must have outsourced it to an expert. That's a nice compliment.
Mr. Hoppe:
Thank you for your compliment. I do not consider myself a good scrimshander, a fair one in skill. Also looking at what Piercy can do in much less time than I can, even now, I believe he will have great success in scrimshawing in the future if he continues. He will easily pass me and at least be as good or better than the scrimshanders who people currently ship cues to.
And to the fellow that sent me an e-mail and asked for me to post the answer here. Yes, you must have lived here b4, because you may have correctly guessed why the local 4 cue makers are my friends. As per your e-mail: When I came into this area the police colonel over the other area had already called and talked to this present colonel here. Since some countries give money to the police here through their embassies, it is easy for some embassies to ask for police help with their citizens. Upon arrival here I went to this police colonel of this area. He told me he had already been alerted to me coming and he told me that it would be impossible for me to be in his area without the local cue makers eventually finding out. His reasoning to solve the problem of word getting out, which could possibly lead to my death, was to send a police captain and I to the local 4 shops and the captain telling them I was best friends with the colonel and under his protection. So . . . . these four became immediate "friends" and knew to keep my presence to themselves, not to alert someone who wants to murder me.
Tate:
Best we do not PM, because the problem is I never come on here unless someone tells me that I am being slammed on this forum. Thus the only time I would ever come on to check the messages is when I am being slammed. Even then I do not check. Best, if you would just send me an e-mail for questions on cues being made here. I will not know them all, but I can give help with a few of them. E-mail address below.
Thank you for making the correction. I hope I can help you in the future.
Piercy: I blocked you some time ago, but forgot your IP address. Just send me your IP address and I will unblock you. Bad to hear of you having problems with your kidneys., Hope the problem will go away and is not permanent. Once you e-mail me we can talk.
I can be e-mailed at: qpcues@queperfect.biz

I don't know my ip address. Sorry I do not know how to send the ip adress to you.
Thanks for the comments you said. I practice everyday now on my scrimshawing.

Thanks jack I don't have pics , well good ones of any of the cues you have actually. When you get a chance could you send it to my email?
Marshall, I just typed "whats my ip address?" into google and came up with several sites that will tell you your ip address.
I'm sure that our pc techy members will come up with a more scientific method, but i betcha this should suffice.
BTW, I love your scrimshawing stuff in this thread. Amazing what you do in such a short time, with limited resources. You never cease amazing me. Keep getting better, we need more of you, and from you. :thumbup:
Thanks man. Would you like to suggest anything again?
Now I was able to get in - it was some kind of encryption issue - working now, thanks.
Chris
if you can't figure it out then call your internet provider and they will tell you

I own a bunch of cues that Marshall made, can't remember now but it's ten or twelve. Anyway, I'm a small time cue collector and these cues are not only the most beautiful and unique cues I've ever had, they are the best playing cues I've ever had.
Marshall came to Sacramento a couple of summers ago to deliver several cues to me. I took him to Hard Times Billiards for a tournament and to show his cues around. A guy named Trevor, one of the best players in Northern California, played with one of Marshall's cues and said it's the best cue he's ever picked up. He also said that you could blindfold him and give him some of the top cues in the world and he could pick out Marshall's cue by the hit.
I'm on vacation right now in San Diego and I want to post a couple of pictures of the buckeye burl cue Marshall made for my brother, Hope the pics come out OK. It might be hard to see in the pics, but there is a real cobra head inlaid into the cue, as well as a natural lightning bolt shaped crack in the burlwood that has cobra skin inlaid into it like it's the tail of the snake coming out towards the bottom of the cue.
When I get home from vacation I'll post a couple of pics of the burlwood knife Marshall made for my wife for her retirement from law enforcement. It is inlaid on one side with her initials in turquiose, as well as her badge number on the other side.

Forgot to mention when I sent the pics of the burlwood cue Marshall made, when we were warming up for a tournament at Hard Time Billiards in Sacramento, Marshall made the 9 ball on the break FOUR TIMES IN A ROW. The odds of this happening have to be in the millions. I've never even seen a pro make the 9 ball two times in a row. Jack
Wow, this kid is talented!
Sorry for not posting my scrimshaw a day pics. My camera fell in the water and I will be getting one on Tuesday and catch up with everything. Thanks
I may have misread your post, but thought you said you were blocked. Maybe it was only Tate that had bee blocked.
I blocked two different IPs that were in Mississippi some months ago and thought you might have been one of them.
If you can get onto my site, then disregard this.
I do not plan to come back on this forum for a while.
